Vacation rental home tips:

Get the best rental home value:

• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Reserve your rental home in Fall or Spring to get the benefit of gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Cape Fear area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• Some hosts and property managers offer promotional rates for veterans. Ask your property manager if rate reductions are available for your group.
• Property managers typically offer customers an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local Cape Fear area visitors guide magazine upon checking in. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local stories, travel guide magazines contain money saving offers on nearby shops and restaurants.

How to choose the perfect rental:

• Begin by selecting trip dates and a maximum budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration your group requires. Waterfront Retreat walkable to the best shops, restaurants, & charm of Southport has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts & types is almost always accessible online. If they are not listed, email the property management company before reserving your home. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you'll need to search for a pet-friendly vacation rental. Get information on breed, weight, and type requirements. Often, property managers charge pet deposits and fees.
• Looking for particular amenities? Most rental search websites include amenity lists and search filters. Use these filters to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking.

More tips for your visit:

• Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and add a note with the directions to your smartphone.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your rental home while you're out and about. Protect the owner's property and your things!
• To make sure no damages are attributed to your visit, make a record of any problem areas upon check in. E-mail the property manager right away to document any issues. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful vacationers disrupting your quiet neighborhood. Use the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great restaurants and scenic spots you would have not otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• On check-out day, complete a walk-through to confirm you didn't forget anything. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did you have a wonderful time? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for vacationers to provide feedback. If your rental and/or property management company was great, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was wrong and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
